SG Senate 1

By STEPHEN C. GUIIFOYLE

The SG Senate took a stand on attendance
at its meetings with the passage of a
bill and a resolution Wednesday to prevent
uncxcused absences.
The resolution, urging expelled

resumes, was first introduced by James
Brown, Powers and Responsibilities
Committee chairman.
When another senator asked what the
resolution could accomplish, Brown said,
"All we can do is ask them. This is just a
resolution. It is not a bill and not
enforceable."
Brown then introduced a bill, which he

publication of a list of senators who miss
senate meetings without an excuse.
Specifically mentioning The Gamecock
as a source of publication, Brown said the
bill look a strong stand on the issue.
The bill was amended to include the
districts of the absent senators and to
allow them one week to explain their
absences to the Senate Rules Committee.
It passed unanimously.
Another senator proposed adding an
amendment to send the absentee list to the
USC records office as a part of the
students' permanent records, but this action
was postponed.
Sen. Harry Sharp's resolution for the
Academics Committee regarding student
athletes also was passed.

The resolution requests that the USC
athletic department meet minimum standards
set by the National Collegiate
Athletics Association in its Proposition
48, which apparently raises standards for
student athletes.
Sharp said the standards were a 700
score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test and
a C average in high school. He said the
resolution was not racial, and he was not
sure whether the athletics department was
already in compliance with the NCAA.
Sen. Ed Sookikian, speaking on the
resolution, said academics come first at
USC.
"Everything else is extracurricular," he
said. "There is a minimum 2.0 for being
in the student senate, and there should be
a minimum 2.0 for athletes."
The resolution passed, but with some
objections. Sen. Rodney Brown said the
majority of the senators had not read the
NCAA proposition.
Sen. Leroy Gadsden agreed. "It's
unethical," he said.
Another bill passed Wednesday will
aiiow nccnsing 01 student organizations
during the summer. Sen. Cclestine Snipe
introduced the bill for the Student
Organization Licensing Committee.
According to the bill, the SCi president
would appoint an interim chair for SOLC
if a vacancy existed in the office of
secretary, and the secretary would appoint
an interim chair if the president is
not in attendance.
